Essex Cricket are pleased to announce that batter Michaela Kirk has signed for Essex Women on a short-term deal from The Blaze.
The 27-year-old has signed a deal that will see her feature for Essex Women for the remaining five Vitality T20 Blast matches of the season.
On signing for Essex Women, Kirk said: "This is a great opportunity to work on my game in a different environment and get some valuable game time so I am sharp if called upon by The Blaze over the rest of the summer.
"I always want to be the best cricketer I can be, and I am grateful to The Blaze management for the opportunity to keep working on my skills and get match practice in the short-term."
Having played in over 70 T20 matches throughout her career, Kirk has scored over 850 runs, including two-half centuries.
Essex Women's Head Coach, Stephen Parry, added: "I am excited to welcome Michaela to our squad. We are looking forward to having her with us, and I am sure her contributions will be invaluable both on and off the field."
Welcome to Essex, Michaela!
